3.3.3.3. Outline and Outline and Outline and Outline and FeaturesFeaturesFeaturesFeatures

The moisture analyzer is built using a super hybrid sensor (S.H.S.) adopted in an

analytical balance. Therefore, the result is more precise and gets greater repeatability. An analyzer using the S.H.S. has high sensitivity, needs only a sample quantity of a

few grams, and the analysis time becomes shorter. A 400W halogen lamp is used as the heating source and the temperature on the

sample pan can reach 200°C within two minutes. There are five analysis modes. Standard mode..... The moisture content can be obtained with settings of the

drying temperature and accuracy. Quick mode........... Sample is heated up for approximately three minutes at 200°C so

that analysis time becomes shorter. The moisture content can be obtained with settings of the drying temperature and accuracy.

Automatic mode .... When the change of moisture content per one minute is less than the preset termination value, the measurement is automatically stopped and the result is obtained.

Timer mode ............ The sample is dried for a preset time and the result is obtained. Manual mode.......... This mode can stop the measurement by key operation and the

result is decided. The heating patterns can be used to analysis mode without quick mode.

(For ML-50, standard drying and quick drying can be used only) Standard drying ..... Maintains a constant drying temperature. Ramp drying........... Increases the drying temperature gently. Step drying ............. Uses multiple steps of the drying temperature. Quick drying........... Heats up 200°C for few minutes and uses a constant drying

temperature. The analyzer can store and recall proper individual settings for each sample using a

program number (PROG No.). MS-70 / MX-50 MF-50 ML-50 Maximum program number 20 sets 10 sets 5 sets

The analyzer is equipped with a serial interface as standard. It can be connected to a printer or computer.

The analyzer can calibrate the weighing sensor (Use special mass.) and drying

temperature (Use temperature calibrator for MS-70 and MX-50 except MF-50 and ML-50). The analyzer can output the data required at GLP, GMP and ISO at the end of the calibration.

The analyzer has a self check function that can detect function errors. The analyzer displays the current change of moisture content per one minute [%/ min]

in real-time. It can be used for the reference to find the analyzing mode. The sample pans included in the standard accessory can be used repeatedly. There is a test sample that is used to check the moisture accuracy. (The test sample

is a part of standard accessory except ML-50) The glass fiber sheets can be used to quick and precision measurement for liquid

sample. (The glass fiber sheets are a part of standard accessory except ML-50) A reference card is built into the bottom of the analyzer. Principle and UsePrinciple and UsePrinciple and UsePrinciple and Use The moisture analyzer, based on the principle of thermogravimetric analysis, dries a

sample using a halogen lamp and obtains the moisture content in % and other results by the difference between the wet weight and dry weight.

5.3.1.5.3.1.5.3.1.5.3.1. Operation of the sampleOperation of the sampleOperation of the sampleOperation of the sample Use a proper sample quantity. If the quantity is small, precise results may not be possible. If the moisture content of the sample (example: plastic) can be estimated that is less

than 1%, the mass of moisture is not enough for the measurement, when measuring light sample, the result may not be accurate. Consider the following sample mass for the measurement. An estimate of moisture content 1% 0.5% 0.1% Necessary mass for measurement 2 g at least 5 g at least 20 g at least

If the measurement is repeated, maintain the same sample quantity. Crush grain samples to a small, uniform powder for a quick drying process. Spread the sample as evenly as possible. The analyzer is designed to measure the moisture content

of the sample by its weight change. If the sample includes volatile matter, it may vaporize during drying causing a measurement error.

When measuring a liquid or liquid state sample that may make a film on the surface, we recommend you use a glass fiber sheet (AX-MX-32-2).

5.3.2.5.3.2.5.3.2.5.3.2. Operation of the analyzerOperation of the analyzerOperation of the analyzerOperation of the analyzer Press the RESET key to display the zero value before each

measurement. Check that the displayed sample weight is stable before

measurement. Press the START key to start a measurement.

Select the proper Analysis Mode to finish a measurement. Use the change of moisture content per one minute [%/min] that is displayed during measurement as a reference value.

The analyzer needs a pre-heating process before measurement. When measuring samples repeatedly or continuously, the first result is always different from the others.

The pre-heating process is as follows: Put a sample pan, instead of a sample, on the pan. Press the START key to heat it. The analyzer temperature becomes equilibrium.

Use a sample on the sample pan that has cooled to room temperature. When a sample is put on a hot sample pan, the moisture content is diffused before measurement, and precise results are not possible. We recommend you use multiple sample pans.

Do not pile up sample pans during a measurement. Avoid drift and vibration of air conditioners. It may cause "measurement error" and

"unstable value". In particular, because MS-70 is sensitive instrument, it is necessary to consider these influences.

When the difference between ambient temperature and sample temperature is small, it may cause temperature control error. Example: If the heating temperature is set to 50°C, it is affected by an room temperature.

Check the activation of the halogen lamp with the operation indicator. Example: If low heating temperature is set, the brightness of halogen lamp becomes dark.

This accessory (AX-MX-32-1) is a package of 100 glass fiber sheets. This accessory is inclued in the packing for MS-70, MX-50 and MF-50. Purchase this accessory by your order for ML-50. Use the glass fiber sheet (AX-MX32-1) for high surface tension liquid sample.

Example 1 : "Liquid Sample" Or "Meltable Sample" When the glass fiber sheet is used for these measurements, moisture is more apt to

vaporize because of expanding the surface area and space. And the glass fiber sheet has the effect of preventing a surface film from forming at drying process.

A sample including a lot of moisture : Milk, yogurt, soybean milk, condensed milk, ketchup, resin, liquid paste, hand soap, etc.

A sample that melts and adheres to the sample pan. Example: Chewing gums, caramel, hony, etc.

ProcedureProcedureProcedureProcedure (Preparation before heating) (Preparation before heating) (Preparation before heating) (Preparation before heating)

1 Put the glass fiber sheet on the sample pan. 2 Press the RESET key to display zero. 3 Soak the sample into the glass fiber sheet or put the

sample on the glass fiber sheet. 4 Press the START key to start the measurement.

Example 2 : "If The Sample's Surface Is Apt To Carbonize" When the sample is covered with a glass fiber sheet, carbonization of the sample surface

decreases. Therefore the measurement result becomes repeatable and precise. A sample including a lot of sugar, protein and oil Example: Hony, soybean powder, green tea leaves, cookies, etc. A sample that has dark surface and is apt to carbonize Example: Coffee, peanuts, etc.
